American pianist and Steinway Artist Richard Dowling is a renowned interpreter of and recognized authority on the piano music of Scott Joplin, George Gershwin, Louis Moreau Gottschalk, Zez Confrey, and Bix Beiderbecke. Mr. Dowling’s 3-CD set of The Complete Piano Works of Scott Joplin was nominated for a Grammy Award. He was the first pianist in the world to perform the Complete Joplin cycle of 53 rags, waltzes, marches, and cakewalks — nearly four hours of music all from memory in two sold-out concerts at Carnegie Hall, and has performed well over 100 Great Scott! all-Joplin concerts across America. He is a frequent guest artist at ragtime and jazz festivals. Mr. Dowling’s one-hour Great Scott! program will include many of Joplin’s best known and most popular works, including all six used in the 1973 Academy Award-winning movie The Sting.
